Well I come from a family with small skulls - guess that means we have smaller brains. But the hat has a long adjustable strap that could fit my wife's German skull. (I just made her put it on!) So I imagine it could fit a size 8. :)

What's your opinion on a Kubota box scraper? It looks like it does not have 2 blades for scraping forwards and backwards as many other manufacture's do. Do you find you need both blades?

Thanks for the feedback--just be careful of the arms hitting the stops with deck off, my rod was "mysteriously" bent--it may have been from adjusting the height with the deck on and not re-adjusting after taking it off. Todd

The owners manuals seem to be notorious for inaccurate capacities for front axles. Did you drain it at all 3 drain plugs? There is one in the center section and one in each drop housing. If you didn't drain the drop housings, that could account for some of the difference. If you did drain them, I would try to measure how much you drained out. You should be able to add as much back in as came out.

Hello everyone,<br>
Hopeing you good people can give me some sound advice. I am looking into getting a new sub compact tractor. Will be used for landscape work around a new house going up next spring, helping in clearing wooded area around house, plowing snow in winter and general week to week mowing. Nothing real hard but it will get used. I have been looking at either a JD 790 with 7' backhoe the 419 loader and 60' mid mt. mower or a JD 4115 with the 46 backhoe, 410 loader and 72' mid mt. mower. Which is the better system for my needs? Any advice would be very helpful. <br>

Increacing the spring rates will do nothing to help the rest of the chassis (brakes, axle strength, drive line)move (or stop) the load. The truck will just be sitting level when the axle breaks. See prior post about lift kits. I have personal experience on this topic.

I am surprized you have had problems with the 3054. I have sold several with no complaints so far. The DK65 has a perkins engine and like the 45s and 50s that my customers own you should be able to run the wheels off of it with no problems. The DK65 is equipped with a lot more options than the other brands at no extra charge. Remote hydraulics, 3 point lever from the rear and a stong pekins engine. I think you will be happy with this unit.

You need to really take care of your clutch on this tractor. You may be running the tractor with the throttle in high rmps which will require you to slip the clutch more then the foot throttle. 50 hours is to soon but do the adjustment and keep a good eye on it and make sure you have at least an inch of pedal at all times and watch how you use your throttle.

Definitely check out the radiator and front grille for blockage. There have been discussions in the archive about Kubotas not coming up to operating temperature and I have to admit mine falls into that category as well (B7800).

In 85-90 degree heat, with 5' rotary cutter on 18" pasture grass & weeds the tractor stays at or below normal on the gauge.

People have to ask their insurance companies what exactly is and is not covered. Most companies will cover tractors for fire, theft, and acts of God. I doubt most companies will cover them for operator caused events, like rolling or falling a tree on it or anything when it happens away from the owners property. If the tractor is being financed most companies require coverage for operator damage, but they seem not to scrutinize the coverage until after an accident. I bought Sentry insurance through JD for cheap money, something like $120 for three years. This basically covers the tractor and implements for any damage, on or off the property. Liability falls to my homeowners policy (and liability umbrella). I'm not sure yet what I'll do after the finance period ends since my company, Amica, doesn't offer any sort of operator damage coverage.

Some decks gain far more then others, the ones that they don't have them for yet it's not that they aren't trying it's just that they have not been able to find a way to improve on the originals. Were they do have them available we do recommend them.

"was still wandering if running a bit under pto speed would help the cutter from tearing up gearbox."

I usually run at about 450 rpm at the PTO, especially in the tougher brush. I don't seem to need the extra power at 540 rpm and everything seems to run smoother.

On my old B8200HST I never used my heel, just stuck my toe under the forward pedal and pulled up. But on my new L3130 the heel pedal is a little easier to hit and the toe pedal is a little closer to the deck, making it more convenient to heel and toe it.
